ORDSALL HALL EVENT REVIEW | 09.11.19

Pretty much bang on 6 months after our last Haunted Evening at Ordsall Hall, we were back last night to investigate this stunning location nestled in amongst modern suburbia. With 2 different ages to the building guests spent an equal measure in both parts, with paranormal experiences reported mainly during traditional methods.

The ouija sessions, held up in the attic and 18th Century rooms, picked up (during 2 separate vigils) the presence of a little girl unbeknownst to either group. Having read through March's review, this is evidently not the first time a girl spirit has been sensed.

Speaking of senses, lots of guests reported strange feelings, from guests unexplanably bursting into laughter, others feeling sick and discomfort, to more subtle feelings of being touched and various reports of cold spots lower down, suggesting perhaps children present. The name Elizabeth was picked up on by 3 seperate guests and a male presence sensed once again in one of the bedrooms (same as last time) with an almighty shout heard via our recorders moments before we ended our final vigil.

Thank you to all of last nights guests who got fully involved in the vigils and helped bring the evidence forward. Manchester has been a busy weekend with 2 back to back events and we've enjoyed investigating both venues... next week we head further north as we revisit Edinburgh! ... See MoreSee Less

Great review Nat Wilson. I really enjoy reading these. Plus AWESOME looking building 👍

Went to this event last night, first half was really good, had a medium called Andy with us, he was great really wanted us all to get something out of it! second half felt like staff just wanted to go home and didn’t really encourage the team to communicate with the spirits, one half of the group were very sceptical so felt like they affected our experience of the night x

RYECROFT HALL EVENT REVIEW | 08.11.19

Our first of two events in Manchester this weekend was at Ryecroft Hall, built in 1849. This was Haunted Evenings 1st investigation here and with many rooms to investigate, we set about conducting 4 vigils to cover as much ground as possible.

The servants quarters room provided all 3 groups with a connection to spirit via the ouija board. Some of the spirits brought forward were connected to the building ; a spirit named Charles, a female maid and the lady of the house (1862) were just some of the experiences reported. Personal connections from lost loved ones came forward for some of the guests too.

Equipment triggered down in the main reception room, with one amazing moment when 2 music boxes were triggered by an unknown force, as well as rempod action, cold spots and muffled EVP's. Guests picked up voices on the stairs and this was further validated by an EVP session at the end of the night where a voice can be heard on playback.

Thank you to all the guests who joined us last night. We hope to return to Ryecroft Hall next year to build on the experiences we encountered last night. Watch this space! ... See MoreSee Less

THE LOCK-UP EVENT REVIEW | 02.11.19

Our 6th and final Halloween Event of 2019 ended on a high at Birminghams old central custody block "The Lock-Up" with a Corker of an EVP, but more about that later!

So what went down at this old cell block?

During a ouija session a male spirit was connected with who gave the name Willan M and the year 1937.

In the womans block, vibe pods (designed to light up when movement is detected) were going crazy in the cell in the back corner, a cell we've had numerous experiences over our investigations. During a Human pendulum a spirit come through who lived on the land before the building existed (the area was previously the slums). In another pendulum, guests became emotional as personal connections came forward.

During freetime, one group had the K2 going crazy in a few different cells and also had uncontrollable laughter in cell 23. Another guest had earlier said he felt like he hit a wall of energy when he walked in the same cell.

In the very final moments of the investigation back in the womans cell area, k2's kicked into life and voices heard via our recorders. Listen in to the last EVP capture saying "Go on then!" when we go and bid the spirits goodnight!

DRAKELOW TUNNELS EVENT REVIEW | 01.11.19

Halloween event number 5 led us back to the blast doors that keep Drakelow Tunnels secrets locked away from the outside world. Our willing guests descended upon this mysterious location to investigate the miles of tunnels that once formed part of the Rover Shadow Factory, back in 1941 onwards.

The main highlights from the investigation were the voices captured during the various vigils. Some of the EVP's picked up last say "Richard", "Henry", "I don't regret" "Help them", "Digging" and number "78" when asked what year it was. Our showcase EVP was captured by 2 guests during their freetime near the rear blast doors which says "je m'appelle (Conner or Donna) - you decide?!

We had an amazing night, thank you so much. I just wanted to share a picture with you and see what you think. We’re finding it quite interesting!!! Please let us know what you think? X

My picture was taken the same time as Steph Anie and there is nothing on mine

I did this one a few weeks back , you don’t know what dark is till you been in here , fantastic venue with a fantastic company and group 👌👌👌

Sorry but I do not think this was worth the money .spent more time standing about listening to talking other than walk about ourselves and didn't start till 945 instead of 9. Not impressed.

Danielle Pickthorne Annie Winslet mate what a night 😍

Great night! Did anyone get photos of the kitchen area (looking down at the doorway so that the kitchen is on your left)? I've got a photo with some things I can't explain but nothing to compare against apart from different angle.....this is the photo. I'll share more soon but don't want to influence, would appreciate the help

HALLOWEEN GRESLEY OLD HALL EVENT REVIEW | 31.10.19

Investigating Gresley Old Hall is always a paranormal pleasure at anytime of year but for the 4th year running we've had the honour of spending our Halloween night there. Last night was filled to the drafty rafters with a great bunch of guests ready to take on the challenge so thank you all for choosing to spend your Halloween night with us all!.

Highlights :
The attic space, which rightfully creeps a lot of people out, produced an interesting "let me in" EVP, triggers on the vibe pod, music box and for one guest, emotions that reduced him to tears! A strong dominant and not so nice male spirit was sensed in the upper attic rooms, a character who has come forward on numerous occasions over the years.

Bedrooms : A strong personal connection was experienced for one guest during an impromptu ouija session. In a further former bedroom, the name "Robert" was heard via a voice recording, not once but twice during a call out session.

Ground floor : A personal experience occurred via the ouija board during vigil 1 and a further spirit connection made during another vigil, believed to be connected to the building. (Spirit names mentioned were Harry, Albert and Rose)

Thank you again to all those who joined us last night and to team members Sarah and Tara (and Jason!) for your support in making our 4th Gresley Halloween such a great one! - Nat 🎃 ... See MoreSee Less

ST GEORGE'S HALL EVENT REVIEW | 26.10.19

As some of our team and guests explored the haunted delights down in the midlands, a second crew were up North at St George's Hall to investigate the vast catacombs, cells and court room at this Liverpool landmark.

Our northern guests were split down into vulnerable numbers to cover all areas into the small hours of Sunday morning. Activity was experienced in all areas during ouija sessions, human pendulums and whilst exploring the catacombs, a photo of a potential orb within a mist was captured by one guests.

Activity in the old cells area was one of the main highlights and with kit placed along the corridor at hotspots (picked up from dowsing rods), it soon became apparent that we were not alone (as kit started to respond on command). As the energy built throughout the investigation, a music box, that pointed away from everyone into the empty corridor beyond, started to play on command (plays only when someone/something stands in front of it). This intensified and after switching the devise off, a crew member can be heard asking on a voice recording "Do you want to play the music again?" of which an EVP is captured saying ("Yes") I confirm that". A fascinating highlight to a busy Halloween evening and one we shan't forget!
Listen here to the EVP : www.instagram.com/p/B4IYrRllenm/?igshid=15gc7oynzt2ci

Our vile Halloween mannequin trick was hanging about in the catacombs awaiting his selfies so if you haven't already, please post your photos under the selfie post to be in with a chance of treating yourself to another Haunted Evenings night!

On behalf of the team, thanks to all those who joined us for our 5th investigation at this jaw dropping location, we hope its kick started your Halloween!? ... See MoreSee Less

SMETHWICK BATHS EVENT REVIEW | 26.10.19

The team headed back to one of our favourite regular haunts in the Midlands to continue our Halloween season of events last night...

Guests were treated to a light supper and lots of treats at Smethwick Baths before embarking on a night of investigating this old former dance hall and swimming baths, with groups getting the chance to split off down in the air raid shelter, make shift morgue, former stage area as well as spend time in the haunted toilets!

During a ouija session, shadows were seen and footsteps heard moving in the corridor outside the stage area, certainly not the first time this has been experienced! Icy cold spots were sensed as well as 2 guests getting the sensation of pins and needles at seperate times whilst taking part on the board.

Down beneath the baths in the "tunnels", footsteps and shuffling were heard following a guest as they broke away from the group.

On the balcony, as has been experienced on numerous previous investigations, a male voice was detected shouting through our voice recorder, with another EVP we believe said "Robert is your name" (interesting as this was the team members name!).

All in all, Smethwick Baths once again produced varying degrees of paranormal food for thought "moments" and made for an interesting investigation. Our wonderful Hilda (vile Halloween prop) was also lurking in the darkness ready for the Halloween selfies! If you have evidence of hanging out with her, please post your selfies under the "Halloween Selfie" post inorder to be in for a chance of winning a £40 competition voucher.

Thanks to all the guests who attended Smethwick Baths last night and a massive shout out to Andy for hosting, along with Rob, Jenn, Tara, Louise and Rach for making it such a cracking haunted evening! Thanks everyone 😊👻 ... See MoreSee Less
